Teacher - Much Wenlock Primary School

Dear Sirs

"Having used A&S Landscape previously I had no concerns about giving them the contract to install the latest canopy over our KS1 outdoor area. They worked with us to design the right canopy for the area in question and have a good choice of colours and finishes to fit in with existing surroundings. The area has really benefitted from having the canopy installed as the children can now access the exterior area even in wet weather. The whole project only took a few days from start to finish and as usual the installers carried out the work in a professional manner keeping the area clean and tidy as they worked. The staff at A&S Landscape are always polite, helpful and efficient. I will be using them again in the very near future for another canopy over our Nursery area."
